Regner{Anton}:
his sons
{Andreas & Anton}
were said by the
Recruiter
Beauregard’s list to

in 1767 the boys are
listed in
T4900-4901 and
in 1798 they are in

Not found in any FSL

The bride may
have been a sister

they both died
before arriving in

marry

I have found
no Russian record
mentioning any Herr

then the records
center covering
Deutschbach? and

(1805) families.
ReicheimGL:
the
Buedingen ML
says this was
homeUC to
the
Meyer woman
who
married a

but other evidence
makes it clear this
was
Reichelsheim,
Erbach.
ReichelFN{Jakob}:
said by the
Bauer FSL to be
an orphan living in

Meisenheim,
Kurpfalz with a single
Fischer man
living in the

Actually this man
(parents are given)

Wartenberg
(Mai&Marquardt#1245).
For 1798 see
Mai1798:Br22, 68, and 47).
ReichelFN:
said by the
Bauer FSL to be

Buedingen ML
to be homeUC
to
a
Blumenschein woman who in 1766 married a Zirckoebel man fromUC Breuschbach; after which the couple went to Jagodnaja Polyana (Mai&Marquardt#704).

almost certainly was
fromUC
Reichelsheim, Erbach, not
Hessen.

most likely for the
Usinger family,
and I would say I
have about a 5%
chance of being
right.

Burghardt believes
that this couple

to Mariental and he
reports that frau
Reichert was a
daughter of the
Hansen family
whose maiden name in
1798 was given as
Gantz (Mai1798:Mt4).
ReichertFN:
a
Luebeck ML says
this woman married a
Hohnstein man in
1766; by 1767
this couple was in
Norka (Mai&Marquardt#1199).
ReichertFN:

offspring of an
early
Zurich settler
family.
In 1798 he
was said to be from
Zurich (Mai1798:Ls8) –but the family name does not appear in the
Louis FSL and he
himself is too young
to be in a FSL.
ReichertFN:
this family name was

Rueckert.
ReicherterFN:
said by the 1816
Glueckstal
census (KS:672,
401) to be from
Reutlingen,
Wuerttemberg. Using
FHL(1,069,075),
the GCRA verified this origin.
See the
GCRA book for
more details.
Reichle{Carl}FN:
KS:401 said he
came fromUC
Kircheim,
Nuertingen [Amt], Wuerttemberg toUC
Neudorf.
The

book for more.
Reichle{Jakob}FN:
mistakenly said by
the 1816
Neudorf census
(#53) to have come
fromUC
Sternefels,
Vaihingen [Amt], Wuerttemberg.
But
KS:401 said he
came from
Gitenberg,
Nuertingen [Amt], Wuerttemberg.
Using
FHL#1,055,850,
the
GCRA concluded
that the latter
origin, but
Gutenberg
instead of
Gitenburg, was
likely but not
provable due to so
many similar names
in the records
there.
See their
book for more.
Reichle{Jakob,
Johannes}FN:
said by
KS:401 to have
come fromUC
Sternenfels,
Vaihingen [Amt],

Reichmesser{Elisabeth}:
was lving in
Luzern in 1798
with no earlier
colony indicated (Mai1798:Lz35)

is living as the
likely 2nd
wife of
Lembach{Anton}
who was said to have
come from
Lohr (Mai1798:Lk41).

easily and quickly
Registers could be
and were miscopied
-- at least one
family in the Group
of 36 that the
Reuswigs traveled
with was from
Hailer, but the
Reuswigs were not.
Evidently the
family settled in
Stephan where
they were in 1798 (Mai1798:Sp14(where
